Gender Questioning

Introduction

The first question often asked after we’re born is “Is it a boy or a girl?� The assumption is that a child will fulfil one of those two distinct categories. But we are not all born ‘standard male’ or ‘standard female’. The reality is that humans are more complex. There are many shades of grey between male and female. This booklet is for people aged 16 to 25 who are questioning their gender - for people who feel like the gender assigned through sex doesn’t fit.
